Personally, I have greatly preferred the looks of the Subaru WRX and WRX STI in sedan form. While far less useful than the five-door hatch-y versions, they looked a bit more sporty, a bit more carefree.
This is a bit strange for me because I generally prefer sport wagons to sport sedans. Offer me an Audi RS 4 and I’m interested. Offer me an Audi RS 4 Avant and I’ll happily shove anyone who gets in between the car and me.
Imagine my surprise, then, when I found myself lusting after the rendering of a 2015 Subaru WRX wagon by Hungarian renderer X-Tomi.
Subaru, as you might have learned by now, designed the all-new WRX and WRX STI as sedan only, thoroughly doing away with the five-door variants. This has made many all-wheel drive, turbocharger-loving dog owners very cross but me rather happy.
If that weren’t enough Subaru wagon mania for you, X-Tomi has also rendered a 2015 Legacy wagon. It looks a bit too much like the Acura TSX Sportwagon for my taste, but it’s still quite a looker and really should exist.
Subaru does have somewhat of an amalgamation of these cars that exists in concept form. It’s called the Levorg and Subaru North America declined the car after it was told by Subaru Corporate that it couldn’t be renamed.
Oh, Levorg is “grovel” backward.
